High Volume Duck Hunting in Argentina

If you are a waterfowl hunting fanatic, you owe it to yourself to experience high volume duck hunting in Argentina.  This duck hunting experience is the most spectacular waterfowl shooting in the world.  When you consider the entire experience of duck hunting in Argentina – experiencing incredible numbers of ducks flying into your decoys, exquisite lodging, dining on famous Argentina beef and other delectable meats, sampling international award-winning wines, liberal shooting limits as well as seeing the Southern hemisphere night sky – it far exceeds any other waterfowl experience the world has to offer.

I personally have shot ducks in Argentina every year since 2010 except for 2020 and 2021 due to Covid. I have shot at 6 different duck lodges in Argentina in 4 distinct and different areas of the country. The grand total for my wingshooting trips to Argentina is currently at 27. I have been there many times and can help you direct your passion and dreams to the perfect place for you to shoot ducks.

With very liberal limits in comparison to North America, it is possible that you could shoot as many ducks on a morning hunt in Argentina as you could in an entire season in North America.  That is because when it comes to duck hunting in Argentina, there is almost no pressure from local hunters.  The ducks have an extensive habitat for breeding due to the large expanse of wetlands and grasslands in Argentina which makes for total numbers of ducks that are staggering across the country where duck habitat is plentiful.  Limits vary based on outfitters and what area of the country you are hunting in.  Some areas are able to shoot more ducks and some less based on the duck population in that area but the bottom line is, compared to North American limits, the limits are VERY, VERY liberal.

Argentina has over 12 different species to include rosy bill pochard, white-cheeked pintail, ring teal and many more. The most common set up for duck hunting is blinds on the shore or in shallow water with the ducks coming to decoys in potholes, edges of large lakes or canals that connect large bodies of water.  Your field assistants will use mouth calls as well as electronic calls.  The ducks speak a different language than those in other parts of the world with some very interesting calls and sounds that are reproduced by your guide.  Ducks may come in groups of 2-3 or they may come in groups of 20-30 depending on your set up and how they happen to be flying that day.

Most drives to the shooting areas are from 20 minutes to 1 hour from our lodges.  The drives are a bit longer than dove shooting as the duck resource is not as plentiful, and your outfitter must go where the birds are.  With large quantities of water in our hunting area, your outfitter must make sure you are going where the ducks are to insure a quality experience.

Duck hunting in Argentina is a spectacular event just like all the other wingshooting in Argentina.  If a high volume duck shoot is on your bucket list, we can make that bucket list item come true for you. 

Extra Activities:

Afternoon low volume dove shooting and afternoon partridge shooting over pointing dogs. Some lodges have dorado fishing.
